Default Fairing for 18 Heritage
Has anyone put an aftermarket batwing fairing on the 2018 Heritage Classic?
Most of the websites are not very clear if it will fit or not. I know they'll fit a 2017 but I'm wondering with all the changes if these fairing will fit a 2018 Heritage?

Thanks

Mounting bolts I believe are slightly different position. You could try to modify one, but I'm sure Memphis Shades will have one soon if not already.

Thanks Thingfish,
I imagine a lot of the aftermarket companies are working on the 2018's.

Yeah, your thread made me curious so I sent them an email. I'll post their response. On their website it looks like we'd have to move our turn signals off of the light bar possibly.

Not as soon we might have hoped, but coming.

What's wrong with the current windshield setup???? You might end up consequently with another issue like buffeting after adding one of those.

I'm getting a some helmet buffeting at 70 mph +
Secondary roads it's okay but the interstate gets a bit tiring especially for all day riding.

Some people just like the batwing, but for buffeting maybe try a recurve from Long Ride or Freedom Shields.
